Thumbs up 1000

John Force has just won 1000 round wins . WOW that's a lot. that works out to a least a semi-final finish at every race he ever entered. some people think about all his championship but in the early years there were some lean times for Force.

Talking Re: 1000

Force is the Man when it comes to drag racing. He's been having a few bad years, but everyone is dumping big money in this sport. WJ is coming back in a big way too. KJ ran a 209 MPH trap yesterday.

I love drag racing and have since I was a young'un. My first car was a 1964 OLDS 442. I'd sure like to have that right now.

I wish I had the money to pay Ryan to build me an LT-5. Baby, it would Rock.

I wish I had the money to race a Pro Stock ...

Sorry, ranting.

Congrats to John "Brute" Force! I had dinner with him at the Longhorn BBQ in Spokane, WA in the Summer of 1983 after the NDRA World Finals. He talked just as much then as he does now....his brother "Diesel" Louie joined us as well (the quiet one!).
